Everest Medicines Announces 2023 Revenue Expected to be Between RMB124 Million and RMB126 Million

SHANGHAI, Jan. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Everest Medicines (HKEX 1952.HK, “Everest”, or the “Company”), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development, manufacturing and commercialization of innovative medicines and vaccines, announced today that the Company expects to record a total revenue ranging between RMB124 million and RMB126 million for 2023, according to preliminary review of unaudited management accounts.

The substantial increase from 2022 revenue of RMB12.8 million was mainly due to Xerava®’s successful commercial launch in July 2023 and Nefecon®’s commercial launch in Macau in December 2023. This is also significantly higher than our previous 2023 revenue guidance of RMB70 to 100 million.

“2023 was the first year of commercialization in China for Everest. To achieve revenue well above our previous guidance is a testament to the hard work of the entire company behind our commercialization efforts, and the potential of our products to address significant unmet medical needs,” said Ian Woo, President and Chief Financial Officer of Everest Medicines. “We will be launching Nefecon® soon in China, making this first-in-disease medicine available to 5 million IgAN patient in the country. We expect 2024 revenue to grow significantly from 2023, and would like to reaffirm our 2024 revenue guidance of RMB700 million.”
